Those sound so good!

Here is a recipe I have saved to try.
Not apple, but it is German!

PEACH KUCHEN

2 c. sifted flour
1/4 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 c. butter
9 or more peach halves, fresh or canned
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 egg yolks
1 c. heavy cream

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Sift flour, 1/4 cup sugar, salt and baking powder into a bowl. Cut in butter, using two knives, until the consistency of corn meal. Pack into an ungreased square pan (8 x 8 x 2 inches) pressing against bottom and sides. Arrange the peach halves, cut side up, in three rows of three or three rows of four, depending upon the size of the fruit.

In a small bowl combine the 3/4 cup of sugar with the cinnamon. Sprinkle sugar evenly over the fruit. Bake for 15 minutes. In a small bowl heat the egg yolks, stir in the heavy cream. Remove the Kuchen from the oven after the first baking period.

Pour the cream mixture evenly over the fruit and return to the oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool in pan. To serve: Run a thin knife or spatula along the edge to loosen the crust. Cut Kuchen in serving pieces and remove piece by piece.

From Cooking Light Grilled Pork Tenderloin Sandwiches Prepare the pork and assemble the sandwiches at home. Wrapped in foil, they'll stay warm while you travel to the stadium. Or slice and refrigerate roasted tenderloin, and serve the sandwiches cold. Take along the dressing in a thermos or tightly closed jar, and allow people to dress their sandwiches themselves. 1/4 cup hot jalapeÃ±o jelly 1 teaspoon water 1 tablespoon paprika 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon granulated sugar 1 teaspoon brown sugar 1 teaspoon chili powder 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins, trimmed Cooking spray 1/4 cup light ranch dressing 1/4 cup sweet hickory smoke tomato-based barbecue sauce (such as Bull's-Eye) 8 (1 1/2-ounce) hamburger buns or Kaiser rolls Prepare grill to medium-high heat. Combine jelly and water; set aside. Combine paprika and next 6 ingredients (through pepper); rub evenly over pork. Place pork on grill rack coated with cooking spray; cover and grill 15 minutes, turning pork occasionally. Brush pork with jelly mixture. Grill an additional 5 minutes or until thermometer registers 155Â° (slightly pink). Place pork on a cutting surface. Lightly cover with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Thinly slice pork. Combine ranch dressing and barbecue sauce. Serve pork and ranch mixture with buns. Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 bun, 3 ounces pork, and 1 tablespoon sauce)

Here it is from the breakfast ideas post: Apple puff pancake recipe: * 2 apples or pears * 1-2 Tbsp. canola oil * 1-2 Tbsp. butter * 1-2 Tbsp. sugar * Pinch cinnamon * 3 large eggs * 3/4 cup all-purpose flour * 3/4 cup milk * Powdered sugar and lemon slices, for serving Preheat the oven to 450Ã¯Â¿Â½F. Peel (if you want), core and slice the apples. In a large skillet (if you have an ovenproof one, use it), saute the apples in the oil and butter over medium heat for a minute or two. Sprinkle them with the sugar and cinnamon and cook until they start to turn golden and begin to soften. Remove the apples from the heat. Whisk together the eggs, flour, and milk. DonÃ¯Â¿Â½t worry about getting all the lumps out. Now you can proceed one of two ways: 1) Pour the batter over the apples in the skillet and put it in the oven. (If you donÃ¯Â¿Â½t have an ovenproof skillet, pour the sauteed apples into a deep dish pie plate and pour the batter over them.) The apples will bake straight into the pancake, but it wonÃ¯Â¿Â½t rise quite as high with the fruit inside; or 2) Remove the apples and set them aside to serve on top, then pour the batter into the hot pan. This way the pancake will rise even higher and look more dramatic. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the pancake is puffed and golden. Cut it into wedges and serve warm with the fruit and a sprinkling of powdered sugar. Serves 4.
